In the blink of an eye, three days have passed since the transformation of Fuyun City.
After waiting in Floating Cloud City for the compensation and rewards from Wenchang Pavilion, Chen Luo and his party set out again.
Floating Cloud City was an accidental encounter on the way. In the end, Chen Luo experienced a dangerous situation and got three heart fruits and six Confucian treasures. Fortunately, Wenchang Pavilion was generous and rewarded another Confucian treasure. There were seven in total, and it was finally another sign of good fortune.
Well, that's not right. The three heart fruits were due to chance, and the seven Confucian treasures were earned through Chen Luo's own efforts and deception.
The Three Fruits are destined by Heaven, and the Seven Treasures depend on hard work.
Wenchang Pavilion will handle the matter of the collapse of the world. After getting the treasure, he said goodbye to the students of Fuyun College and Yellow Crane College. Chen Luo left Fuyun City with his senior brothers and sisters, a dog and a frog.
…
Chen Luo was very confused at the moment.
With the seven great Confucian treasures and the buff of Jin Guagua, he refined four Hongmeng Qi for the first time.
But here comes the problem.
Are you using the four Hongmeng Qi combined to draw a new book? Or continue to unlock "The Legend of the Eight Immortals"?
Fortunately, Qingning City, where Cui's family is located, is only one day away, so I can think about it again. It won't be too late to write when I live in Qingning City.
Having made up his mind, Chen Luo no longer hesitated, but still looked thoughtful, looking at Yun Siyao who was sitting across from him and concentrating on refining the True Phoenix Blood Lotus.
Yun Siyao seemed to be aware of it, and did not open his eyes. He just said lightly: "Is there a flower on my face? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Chen Luo smiled softly: "Senior sister is good-looking."
Yun Siyao's face turned slightly red, but he still did not open his eyes, still trying to maintain the dignity of his senior sister.
"Glib tongue!"
"Then tell me how beautiful it can be!"
Chen Luo thought about it seriously: "It's more beautiful than the classics written by saints."
"It's even more beautiful than the Ten Thousand Miles of Tongtian Road."
Yun Siyao's hand hidden in his brocade sleeve moved slightly and said angrily: "Don't look at it!"
Chen Luo said "hmm" and closed his eyes.
"Then I think so!"
"Cough, cough, cough!" Lang Feixian, who had been sleeping soundly, got up: "Oh, it's a bit hot in the carriage. I'll go out and get some fresh air!"
As he said that, he stood up and "accidentally" kicked Jin Guagua, who was squatting aside and licking the elixir in a daze, out of the carriage.
…
Lanzhou, Linlang Mansion, Qingning City.
They are said to be from Lanzhou, but the locals in Qingning never think that they are from Lanzhou. When Daxuan was still a feudal territory of Jiuzhou, Qingning belonged to Mozhou and was located to the north of Mozhou. It was just that the founder of the dynasty, Taizu, redefined the borders and put Qingning City and a large area under the rule of Lanzhou with a stroke of his pen.
Taizu's intention was good. Leya had not been built at that time, and the Northern Territory was not prosperous because it faced the barbarians directly. Partitioning some prosperous places with outstanding people and places to enter will also make it easier for the officials in the north to operate.
Not only Qingning City, there are many similar cities in the north.
But some local aborigines don’t recognize it!
The barbarians are coming. We are all compatriots. It doesn't matter if we stand shoulder to shoulder and I can help you block the knife. But when we sit down, we have to discuss this regional issue.
Where is the North? The barren land of blood and fire, we have been the southern Mozhou since ancient times. Although we have been divided administratively to you, our hearts are still the people of the Central Plains.
Therefore, some good people imitated the division of upper and lower Hanzhou and divided Lanzhou into Lannan and Lanbei.
Among them, Qingning City is the core city of Lannan.
At this time, outside Qingning City, there are willows and peaches and plums competing for spring. If you are careful, you will find that most of the people coming in and out of the city gate are actually Confucian scholars in green shirts.
…
Once entering Lannan, the scenery is suddenly different from Lanbei. Because it is close to the blue sea, the moist sea breeze makes spring come earlier in Lannan than in Qingluo Prefecture.
"Is Qingning City so lively? Are there so many Confucian scholars?" Chen Luo had already left the carriage and sat next to Mastiff Lingling, looking at the pedestrians coming and going and asked curiously.
"Brother, you came to Qingning City to do business." A Confucian scholar riding a white horse suddenly rode up to Chen Luo. He smiled gently and asked Chen Luo, but his eyes drifted into the carriage from time to time.
Just now, a gust of wind blew up the car curtain. He accidentally glanced inside the car and saw a woman sitting with her eyes closed. Her appearance and temperament really amazed his senior sister. They followed him for nearly ten miles and finally found a match. Excuse.
At this time, Chen Luo had already mastered the true meaning of the Seven Injuries. The true meaning seemed to be due to the Seven Injuries. It was more powerful than Chen Luo expected, and spread to a full seven-step radius. Therefore, the Confucian scholar's small movements were not concealed at all. But Chen Luo's induction.
Chen Luo didn't care, but he suddenly thought that it would be very interesting if the other party knew that he was interested in Mr. Zhulin Liu.
Chen Luo cupped his hands and said, "This dear fellow is so polite."
"Why do you say that?"
Hearing Chen Luo's question, the handsome Confucian scholar quickly returned the greeting, gently unfolded the fan in his hand, and deliberately raised the volume to ensure that it could be heard in the carriage: "In Shi Lezhi, Xiapanshan Fuzhen New City, your Excellency will be addressed in a small voice. Just be determined!"
"What? Zhenxinzhen Xiaozhi?" Chen Luo was stunned, is there a Yusanjia?
"It's not Zhenxin Town, it's Zhenxin City." Shi Lezhi corrected him, then pointed to the three servants behind him, "These three are the guards assigned to me by my family."
Well, if they can arrange escorts, they must be no ordinary family.
Mastiff Lingling glanced at them and sent a message to Chen Luo: "Master Hou, these are three demon servants! They are equivalent to the master's spiritual realm."
"They are the Green Wood Toad, the Nine Cold Turtle and... hmm? It's actually a Fire Dragon Beast with a trace of Azure Dragon blood?"
Chen Luo had nowhere to go.
Isn't this Bulbasaur, Squirtle and Charmander?
Co-author, you really brought the Yusanjia with you!
When Shi Lezhi saw Chen Luo's eyes, he knew that his identity had shocked the young man. He smiled faintly and said, "I wonder what you call me?"
Chen Luo smiled and said, "Liu Dongchen, I'm traveling around the mountains and rivers with my brother and sister, and taking a look at the trade routes."
When traveling, Chen Luo had already discussed with Yun Siyao and the others that he would travel under a pseudonym this time. Although it would not have much concealment effect on those who wanted to assassinate, it would still be able to cause some interference.
What's more, with Chen Luo's reputation as a "literary shame", it is really risky to go out openly. When he was in Floating Cloud City before, his identity was naturally exposed due to the catastrophe ahead, but now he just pretends to be a scholar traveling in the mountains and rivers.
As for Liu Dongchen, of course he is the inversion of Chen Dongliu, but it is not just this level. The other level of identity is that of Liu Jingzhuang's nephew, and he also carries Liu Jingzhuang's token.
If Chen Luo hadn't strongly refused, Liu Jingzhuang would have handed Chen Luo his family tree.
"It turns out to be Brother Liu!" Shi Lezhi was happy when he heard the title of "sister", and finally brought the topic back to Chen Luo's previous question, "Brother Liu must rarely go out, right?"
"Now that spring is coming in March, the imperial court is about to hold the Spring Examination! These Confucian students are all rushing to take the exam!" Although Shi Lezhi felt a little naive, he explained seriously.
"If a person in the Confucian sect has read thousands of books, he will naturally have to travel thousands of miles! If he is simply rushing, someone will naturally fly away or teleport, and he can reach Zhongjing in a few days. However, according to the rules of the Confucian sect, if the herdsmen want to succeed in the exam, they must also You need to walk thousands of miles down-to-earth.”
"Really look at what's going on in the world, what's going on with the people's livelihood, and what's going on with the current politics!"
"So every time the ice and snow melt, students preparing for exams will walk to Zhongjing, so you can see so many students on the road."
Chen Luo nodded. In his previous life, the so-called number one scholar had no ears to hear what was going on outside the window and only read the books of sages. Once he wins the ranking, he will be on the side of the herdsmen!
There are capable ministers and officials, but there are more mediocre people.
Daxuan has this example, which does help Confucian scholars broaden their horizons.
"Not only that!" Lang Feixian's message fell into Chen Luo's ears, "The foundation of a Confucian scholar's future family and country will be laid in this line of work!"
Chen Luo suddenly understood and nodded.
Shi Lezhi felt even more proud when he saw Chen Luo looking like he was being taught. He quickly continued to use his charm and continued: "While traveling thousands of miles, various wealthy and aristocratic families would also open their doors, give lectures on scriptures, or offer rewards and open topics. It is also a great prestige.”
"As long as you pass the test of a family and are recognized, you can get a family emblem. Before the examination in Zhongjing, Wenchang Pavilion will make a comprehensive summary of the number of family emblems obtained and the comments of each family, and come up with a score for the students. Rating!”
"Even if you perform abnormally in the examination room, if your rating is extremely high, it will not affect your future!"
Chen Luo raised his eyebrows.
This is... a badge for playing in a gym?
Did I open it wrong somewhere?
Shi Lezhi looked proud, and glanced behind him. The demon servant transformed into a green wood toad immediately shouted: "My young master has obtained five clan emblems!"
As soon as he said this, the Confucian scholars around him immediately cast envious glances, but what made Shi Lezhi a little disappointed was that there was no reaction in the carriage.
While the two were talking, they could already see the gate of Qingning City from a distance. However, the gate was crowded with people at this time. Shi Lezhi signaled, and a demon servant immediately flew out. After a while, he flew back and reported: "Go back." Young Master, the Cui family of Qingning has set up entrance questions at the city gate. Many students gathered there to solve the city entrance questions."
"The question of entering the city?" Shi Lezhi was surprised, and Chen Luo quickly asked: "Brother Shi, what is the question of entering the city?"
"Ah, the questions for entering the city!" Shi Lezhi tilted his head and explained, "As the name suggests, it is a question set when entering the city."
"There used to be a young scholar who was visited by a large number of students every spring exam. He never tired of visiting him, so he set up a question at the city gate. Only by solving the question can he visit!"
"The city entry question is a road-blocking question, and it has the meaning of challenging the heroes of the world. Therefore, big families rarely set city entry questions. However, if a city entry question is set and it is solved, the person who solves the problem can designate anyone from the other family, up to the great scholar. Down to the Confucian scholars, discuss the Tao with yourself for a day!"
"This is a rare opportunity. Many people are accepted as disciples by a certain family's great scholars because they failed to pass the imperial examination. There are even the pleasure of being directly recruited as sons-in-law!"
Chen Luo nodded thoughtfully.
Isn't this just a big family raising the threshold for elites and harvesting talents?
Wenchang Pavilion naturally knew this, but if a talent really took off and a big family invested in advance, it would be a good thing for the human race, so they did not stop it.
Shi Lezhi cheered up a little. The beauty in the car had not responded to his explanation, so he should use this entrance question to show his talent.
He looked at the demon servant and asked, "What's the topic?"
"Back to the young master, it's a poem title."
"The topic is: Flowers are similar every year, but people are different every year!"
purple pen literature
